Cathy brenmariecanben

Please email me with your name and shipping addy by Sunday afternoon (before 3 please, so I can get things ready) and these will go postal on Monday.

I will also be mailing out the ribbon prizes and the clear disks Monday for those of you that won that contest and emailed me. Sorry I did not get those postal this week, it has been a crazy busy time and I haven't had any free time to address envies. If you haven't emailed me and you won in that contest, please do so by THIS Sunday at 3pm (EST). After that, it is closed, and no more names will be added to the list. I will be doing a big ole envie addressing time that afternoon, so get those addies to me before then. Alrighty then? Make sure you include your blog id when you email me your name and addies so I can get the right envie to the right person. :)Have an awesome evening and thanks for playing!!!

Post a comment here and you just might win a RAK from me. (I will do the drawing the first part of the week and post winners shortly after that).Happy Thanksgiving everybody!!!

Do you need a kit for the clear acrylic ornament mini class? Just email me and I will send you a paypal invoice. As soon as I receive payment I will ship your kit right out. I will be putting a few kits in my etsy store that include a white Stazon ink pad in addition to the regular kit (as shown in red accent kit on left). Regular kits are priced at $25.00 and the kit with the added Stazon Ink pad is priced at $37.00. This is by far the best white ink pad I have EVER used, it is very white, not ivory tinted at all, and you can stamp on pretty much anything! I love it. There are only a few kits available with the inkpads, because I do not have a store and have no interest in opening a store, so if you want one, email me right away. I can't wait for class to start so I can see all the gorgeous creations you make. There is also a class supply list you can download in the class discription if you would prefer to check your stash or purchase items elsewhere. Normally I will not be offering class kits, but it was a little difficult to find the size clear acrylic that I wanted for the class. Hence the kits! Let me know if you have any questions. Have an awesome day!

How did I come up with Pam's Eclectic Stuff?

eclectic --adj.- selecting what seems best of various styles or ideas *Since I like a huge variety of arts and mediums, this seemed perfect, we will talk about the best of various styles or ideas.

stuff- The noun stuff has 7 senses - 1. material, stuff -- (the tangible substance that goes into the makeup of a physical object; "wheat is the stuff they use to make bread")2. whatchamacallit, stuff, whatsis, sundry, sundries -- (miscellaneous unspecified artifacts; "the trunk was full of stuff")3. stuff, clobber -- (informal terms for personal possessions; "did you take all your clobber?")4. stuff, stuff and nonsense, hooey, poppycock -- (senseless talk; "don't give me that stuff")5. stuff -- (unspecified qualities required to do or be something; "the stuff of heros"; "you don't have the stuff to be a United States Marine")6. stuff -- (information in some unspecified form; "it was stuff I had heard before"; "there's good stuff in that book")7. stuff -- (a critically important or characteristic component; "suspense is the very stuff of narrative")

*What more needs to be said? I really thought about using Pam's Eclectic Sundries, but I thought that might be tough to remember. :) Stuff is easy and conveys a variety of meanings. I like the definition- miscellaneous unspecified artifacts. I also liked whatchamacallit, but that is a lot of typing. :)

About Me

Hi there! I love creating things, be it scrapping projects, fabric projects, quilting projects, altered art, jewelrry making, stamping, cards, and crafts of many other venues. I love color and texture. I am an avid quilter, love to design my own patterns, and have sewn home décor as well as children and adult’s clothing and costumes. I have dabbled in many different mediums and crafts over the years. I have sold my work in a variety of retail establishments, as well as directly to the public. I have taught many different classes, and have been fortunate enough to be on several design teams.
I owned a porcelain doll business, as well as a laser steel artwork business. If I can figure out how to make it, I usually do. To me, creating and crafting is the best therapy in the world. I love gardening as well, I am married, volunteer regularly, have 2 adult children, 5 grandchildren, and 3 dogs. My husband and I also like to travel.
